Bernard bounced by Chardy in Shanghai

Chardy was dominant throughout the encounter, saving all five break points he faces – helped by stellar serving that garnered 11 aces – and converting all three break points he held against the Aussie.

For the second straight week it was a Frenchman bundling Tomic out of an Asian event; last week in the second round of the China Open in Beijing, Tomic fell to Rochard Gasquet.
